On Tuesday, February 5, I had foot reconstruction surgery for my right big toe. I have been suffering with a growing arthritic problem for 15 years. It had become incredibly painful for the past few months, the accumulated bone spurs preventing the toe from bending during normal walking. I tried many non surgical remedies toContinue reading “Surgery – Hallux Ridigus”

Hold On
Self Shadow, NYC, 1978/79 My life…. when I look at it, it can fit so neatly like others do on a timeline. A beginning, an end. Someday that all will fit, bits and pieces, neatly in box. Hopefully. Who will remember me as I do they? If all I ever do is having had aContinue reading “Hold On”

I am not a “winner”, but there is a bit of me in everything I do.
I know nothing better then to photograph what is close to home. My neighborhood, my commute to and from work, my hometown New York City and its boroughs. In strangers on the street I recognize a piece of myself within. Of course my friends, and last, but not least, my family. For me, there isContinue reading “I am not a “winner”, but there is a bit of me in everything I do.”
